More about Intellectual Property (IP)

Intellectual Property Law regulates and protects property derived from your mind such as artwork, music, inventions, discoveries, domain names, business secrets, writing, trademarks, packaging, and advertising slogans and logos. An intellectual property law attorney might help you prepare a copyright or trademark application or a licensing agreement. An intellectual property attorney may also represent you in an infringement action or assist in a contract negotiation. When it comes to preparing patent applications—that is registering to protect inventions and similar functional discoveries—your intellectual property attorney must have one other qualification: in addition to being bar-certified, the lawyer must have a certification from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
